Um das herauszufinden, muss die Bibel auf den Prüfstand gestellt und untersucht werden, ob sie ihrem absoluten Anspruch standhalten kann.

Not all churches are created equal—some are built by men, others by the Spirit.

I intended to write three different books and sell them separately. I wouldn’t have gotten rich off doing it that way, but I had some ideas in mind. I thought I might use the books separately according to my initial plans. After finishing all three, I reconsidered my plans and listened to the Lord. I now believe that placing these three books together will better serve the overall process. The books work well with each other. They form a weave or blend of thoughts, ideas, concepts, and teaching that will lead the person who pays attention to understanding a power that works in them. Each ...

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that there is in Matthew a thoughtful and carefully nuanced description of the activity of the Spirit.

Matthew does tend to be economical in his references to the Spirit, and this has no doubt contributed to the perception that he is not interested in matters of pneumatology. Yet such a cursory statistical assessment should not be permitted to obscure what is an important ...
